We finished up all the presentations in our block period of English today. We had a total of seventeen people present. One of the many presenters was Brittney Williams. I think for her being so nervous to get up and speak in front of the classroom, she did a really good job. I thought her speech was very powerful and she connected to the audience. She spoke with power and emotion, which drew in the attention of the class. Also, she could connect with her organization because she, herself, is a minority. This made it more personal.
Her organization was the NSHMBA, which was founded in 1988. The purpose of it is to help the poor Hispanic and their community. It helps the poor with leadership and financial management, helps them get accepted to college, and teaches them skills so they can be successful. She used good statistics and facts to open her speech.

Wow we had 17 people present during our block? No wonder we were all zonked afterward!! I totally agree with you that Brittney did an excellent job in connecting with her audience. I felt that she was passionate about NSHMBA and talked with the class as though it were one-on-one. And although Brittney was nervous, I felt that she pulled her self together and presented a great speech about her organization.
